Original subtitles

This shack looks abandoned.

So this means Isan people have to sleep like this in Bangkok?

Yes.

Soodkaneung, my dear.

What happened, Mahassachan?

(Previously)

Soodkaneung is having a miscarriage.

- A miscarriage? - A miscarriage?

You and your mom

are very kind.

Tomorrow, I'll give my family ring

to Mahassachan, so he can put it on your finger.

This ring belongs to you.

Give it to the person

who will become your life partner and soul mate.

Strange.

Is this the guidance of fate?

I'm still curious about the letter you took.

If it's true,

where will the MP and Mahassachan live?

I don't know either.

And what are we going to do?

Are we going to stay with them

or leave them?

Let's go. It's my last day of exams.

I think Soklek's probably waiting for you.

Siam's here with the grocery list.

She's using us like cattle and always taking advantage of us.

Her too.

I wonder what she'll do if her employers end up in a rut.

We'll see each other's true colors.

I'm not here to take it back.

I won't complain if you do. I'll go and get it.

I'm here to thank you

for keeping it for me.

What did he ask you to keep?

You don't have to know.

Look there. Siam's coming.

You two are being slow. Get to work.

Your work starts at 5 a.m. Don't be slacking off.

Give me the grocery list and the money.

Here.

Patiharn,

don't tell me you've been sitting here like this for the whole night.

You left our daughter at the hospital. Who's she with?

Who else? With her husband, of course.

They told me to come home last night.

But I was afraid I might wake you, so I slept in the guest room.

Come on.

I think Hiran's probably managed to cheer our daughter up now.

I'm afraid she might be in despair.

I've noticed her being depressed for a while now.

But she wouldn't tell me why. And I couldn't make a guess.

But I suspect it's something personal between her

and her husband.

You talked about this and that, but it ended up with Hiran again.

Why do you hate him so much?

I don't.

There's no rhyme or reason for me to feel that way.

I'm just worried about our daughter.

All right. I won't talk about your son-in-law.

I went to open our safe last night.

I was thinking of doing so as well,

so I can give the family ring to our son.

I just gave it to him last night.

I'll tell him to give it to Ruamrudee

to signify that she's now unavailable.

I gave Ruayruen and Ruamrudee a promise last night.

Mom!

Why are you in such a rush to do so?

People don't have to rush when they're in love.

You don't know anything at all.

Their family's rich. They own a huge house.

So we have to hurry to claim their daughter first.

Or someone might snatch the opportunity away,

like Baimon.

Whatever will be, will be.

It belongs to Mahassachan.

It's up to him who he gives it to.

Enough about the ring.

I want to ask about the deed to the land in Khao Yai.

The eight acres. Where's the deed?

Hmpf.

You have to be so stern at me over such a simple thing.

Where is the deed?

It's with Soodkaneung.

Huh?

And where did she keep it?

She gave it to Hiran.

What?

What is this?

You don't have to be so shocked

as if someone's going to cheat us out of the land.

Hiran took it to create deeds with separate names.

Mom, you have to get it back now.

Ugh.

Like father, like son. You're both prejudiced.

I'm not being prejudiced.

I'm just having a bad feeling about this.

I saw Soodkaneung about to

open the safe to look for something the other day.

When I asked her,

she started crying.

- Dad! - Patiharn!

- Dad! - Patiharn!

Patiharn, what's wrong?

- Patiharn! - Dad!

- Patiharn, what's wrong? - Dad!

I'm so happy when I have money.

Thanks to the support from Kamloy and Baimon.

What?

No one touches my shack!

What are these?

Fresh palm juice.

Whose are these?

Smells weird.

Maybe I should give it a try?

Why am I so sore?

Hey!

What's going on?

One, two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight.

Eight feet!

Soklek!

- Huh? Soklek? - Huh? Soklek?

Hey, Robert!

It smells like pee.

Chief? Chief?

Hm? Hm?

- Hm? - I need to pee.

- Hm? - What should I do?

You need to pee?

What about...

- Is the water bottle empty? - It is.

Then pee into the bottle.

Pee?

I told you to pee into the bottle!

Pee into the bottle?

- Right! - Right!

Kamlao, how could you pee there?

Ugh! Pee in the bottle!

Soklek, why were you late? We were waiting in front of the house.

Kamloy, go to the market with him. I've got to take my exam.

- Baimon? - Baimon?

Dad? Mom?

- Kamloy? - Kamloy?

Mom? Dad?

Dad! Mom!

There you are!

Patiharn,

can you at least say something?

I've said enough.

But my words seem to have passed you by like the wind

and melted in the sun.

I will say no more.

I'm just waiting to see the disaster that will befall us sooner or later.

It's up to the demons who have caused this for our family.

You're acting crazy again.

I thought you said you'll say no more.

You're chastising me so much my brain is being addled.

Mom,

Dad has a point.

His words are always valuable.

I've started to have a bad feeling about something too.

If you want Dad to get well soon

and be happy without a fuss,

please let a nurse look after him.

Dad,

I have to go and clear up some ambiguity.

Mahassachan,

you can't interrogate Hiran without any evidence.

You might embarrass yourself.

So what's the relation

between you and Hiran.

A son-in-law, a father

- or... - Stop right there!

Then leave. I want to be alone.

All right then.

- Mm! - Mm! This is so good!

- Baimon! - Yum!

Your fermented fish is so good!

It's much better than mine!

It's only natural after all.

The new wave is stronger than the old one.

Baimon is the best.

I'm very happy that you and Aunt Kamlao are here to help.

We're expanding our business here.

It's me and Uncle Robert who will come and go.

Because I have to go home and work.

And...work on the mistress.

Correct!

There!

- There! - How dare you?

Chief Ouak's only joking. Why are you being serious, Kamhao?

That's right.

I just slapped you jokingly.

Why are you being serious, Robert?

I'm going to chop,

and chop what's yours.

And chop, chop some more.

And then I'll ll make larb out of it and feed it to the dogs!

- Let the dogs savor it! - I'm scared!

You really have a violent sense of humor.

It's nothing, really.

- Right. - Baimon,

hurry up and go to your exam.

Soklek and I will hurry to the market.

Mom, Dad, look after the shop, will you?

- Okay. - Sure. You can go.

- Go on. - Don't worry.

Why did you let Hiran separate the names on our deed?

Oh, shoot.

Hello.

Are you about to go home?

That's right.

The impermanence of life is natural.

Yes, it's a huge loss I won't be able to recover from easily.

But I'll be strong

to cheer Soodkaneung up.

Oh dear.

And how is Soodkaneung doing?

Well,

she's at a loss because of the loss.

I want to ask everyone to be careful with the questions they ask her.

Her brain is fuzzy at the moment.

She might not really answer the question,

or maybe

she'll give the wrong answer or none at all.

Well,

- I have to excuse myself now. - Oh, okay.

Why aren't you answering my question about our land?

Do you know Dad suspects there might be foul play involved?

He's got a good sense and can smell a rat from miles away.

He's now hospitalized because of stress.

He's staying in a room nearby.

Dad...

Don't use your tears and silence as an answer to me.

Because that's not the answer.

And if you don't want to answer,

then tell your husband to give back that deed.

He doesn't have to do it for us. We can do it ourselves.

Why are you threatening your sister again?

Don't you see that she's in pain.

Why do you have to rub more salt into her wound?

I'm not rubbing salt into her wound.

But her refusal to answer

will aggravate Dad's condition even further!

She's acting as if she can't get back that deed. I can tell.

And can you tell that she's heartbroken?

Stop asking questions

and wait for Ruamrudee at home.

Put on the ring on her finger and get engaged.

Ten mouths aren't the same as yours that rings true

and can order the life or death of someone.

I'll force them to spit out the cash, the house,

and all their possessions to me.

Mom, I have to go now.

Mother told me to go and get the family ring today.

Hurry on over then.

- I love you the most, Mom. - I love you too.

Bye-bye.

Who's bidding someone farewell?

Oh no! What should I...

Hide!

- Where? - Just go!

What's going on here?

Oh, well...

Oh,

you're happy, so you threw stuff at each other to celebrate?

- That's right. - Yes.

Let me rejoice in your happiness too.

Hold your horses.

A letter demanding payment.

Oh, wow.

That demanding style of writing sounds very familiar.

It's like Paktra's foul writing.

Paktra is nothing compared to you.

Your evilness can't be replicated by anyone else.

Perfectly evil.

Relentlessly evil.

That's too much of a compliment.

You know what? I'm very happy right now.

The MP's hospitalized.

Oh dear!

When is it going to be Soodsuay's turn?

So it'll be the whole family.

I don't want to see those people right now.

They're looking for the deed to the land in Khao Yai.

What should I do?

Go into hiding at a casino near the border.

I can handle this. It's a piece of cake.

Darling!

Having a good wife is like having a mother.

Thanks, darling.

Mahassachan,

this room isn't just Soodkaneung's room.

It's also Hiran's.

This is breaking and entering.

How is it breaking and entering when it's my house?

Stop complaining and search everywhere.

Go on!

Hurry up.

Well, I don't need to know.

But I'm Siam the busybody. So...

(Pawn Agreement)

Pawn Agreement?

What?

Siam.

Oh, hello.

Where's Mahassachan?

- Uh... - Tell him to come and see me.

He said he won't receive anyone until his work's done.

Work? What work?

I don't know.

I only know that it's probably in Soodkaneung's bedroom.

Even a kamikaze is less explosive.

I don't think you should go upstairs right now.

I'm going.

And I'm about to be the owner of this house.

Don't you dare.

The owner of this house?

Huh? I thought they were building a house in Thong Lo.

What a weird thing to say.

(Pawn Agreement)

Diamond wristwatch.

Diamond earrings.

Diamond ring.

Soodkaneung.

The pawner.

You've found what you want.

I have to excuse myself now.

Baimon,

how did you get in here?

You...

My face isn't a tester for anyone's hand.

You dared to slap me in the face?

And how dare you slap me!

What's going on, Baimon?

Why did you let her in here?

You've slept with her, haven't you?

Is that why she dared to slap me?

If you need a consort,

can't you find one somewhere else?

Rudee, you're not showing me any respect.

Don't you trust me at all?

Fire this girl.

Kick her out of this house.

If you don't fire her today,

- She'll... - Soon,

you might have the right to fire me, right?

Let me tell you the truth.

As long as justice the legal system

remain unbiased,

the truth will surface someday.

Move out of the way.

Revel in your right as you please.

Baimon, what are you talking about? Baimon!

Your mom told me to come and see you.

She said you have something to tell me.

Come down and get your thing back.

I'll let you keep it for now.

The family ring!

What are you doing, Rudee?

Why are you rearranging things?

To make things look better.

Won't it be my job soon?

So, where's the ring?

Here. It's here.

What are you looking at?

Why did you come in?

To witness your engagement.

That ring...

It's here.

Oh?

Oh.

You probably want to see the family ring I'm about to get.

Feast your eyes on it then.

And...

It's here.

Here.

- This is... - Our engagement ring.

Why is your family ring so...

It's lost.

- It's lost? - Yes.

Oh, I understand it now.

Congratulations!

Congratulations.

Baimon!

I can't breathe!

Where did you get that?

Cheap ring!

I thought you were getting a wedding ring

from those stupid rich people.

That ring's lost.

- Lost? - Someone must've stolen it.

Baimon.

Daddy has to go now, Kamloy.

I'll miss you.

Kamhao,

I have to go home now.

So I can open up the first branch of our Isan restaurant back home.

Okay.

I hope you get a lot of customers. And no mistress, okay?

Sure.

I'm going now, Baimon.

I have to go now, Nokkab.

You can stay here, so you can feel assured.

So I won't have to worry about anyone,

and I'll be able to do my best to serve the country.

Safe travels, Chief.

Is there a puppy whimpering nearby?

What's wrong, Soklek?

What's wrong?

It's so tragic. Spouses having to live apart.

Oh.

Why didn't Mahassachan

give the family ring to Ruamrudee?

Hm? What's that box?

It's...

Baimon? Kamloy?

Baimon? Kamloy?

What did you do?

Whatever that is, you have to forget it.

Baimon? Kamloy?

Baimon? Kamloy?

Ruayruen and Ruamrudee want to see you now.

- Siam. - Yes?

How much is your salary?

Oh, 12,000 baht, ma'am

with social security, a yearly bonus,

and a gift on my employers' birthday.

Do you want to get fired?

Why would you say such a thing?

Sit down!

And crawl over from that spot.

It's the new rule of this house. Leave if you don't like it.

Huh?

Didn't you hear Mom's order?

- I did. - Then why didn't you obey?

I only obey the MP's,

Madam's, Soodkaneung's and Mahassachan's orders.

Both of you are guests here

and not our employers.

Agreed.

Don't you dare be arrogant.

You're about to lose the roof over your head, yet you're still defiant.

You called us over. Say what you want.

Our time is money.

I suspect you of stealing Mahassachan's lost family ring.

Huh?

Search the whole place.

Siam, restrain them both and don't let them escape.

Search them.

Answer me. What are these?

(Pawn Agreement)

I...

Where's Hiran?

I haven't seen him since I met him in front of the room.

He didn't even come home.

He...

- He... - He went overseas.

He owns a lot of mines. How can you expect him to stay put?

And when he comes back,

he'll have jewelry to give me and your sister.

Don't act all jealous, Mahassachan.

Mom, look at these.

(Pawn Agreement)

He's given us so many souvenirs,

and now they had to be pawned off?

Soodkaneung?

What have you done?

You ungrateful brat!

Do you know how much damage you've caused to our family?

Our family's never dirtied our hands with gambling

or any evil sin!

Tell me what else!

Where's the deed to the land?

I'm sorry, Mom.

I don't need your apology.

And your husband's dropped off the radar

because he's humiliated to have a scumbag of a wife like you!

He's proper enough to fade out from the scene quietly

and doesn't announce to the public that his wife is a wretch

who's possessed by the gambling demon.

Tell me where my deed is!

I shouldn't have put your name on there as the sole owner!

Tell me where it is!

- Tell me now! - Soodsuay!

Stop acting like a barbarian!

Well, gee.

You dragged yourself out of your room.

Do you know how much havoc this stupid brat has wreaked?

I've been suspicious for a while, and I've warned you from the start.

And I'm sure we haven't reached the bottom of this.

Oh dear! Why are you saying it as if we've lost only a hundred or two?

And what should we do? What would we get if you killed her?

Stay calm and composed and accept what's happened.

Just kill me, Dad.

Just tell the truth, Soodkaneung.

Tell me everything that's happened.

So we can be at our strongest when we face it,

- my darling daughter. - Your darling daughter?

More like a scumbag of a daughter!

I should never have given birth to you!

You should've been born somewhere else!

Stop that! She's like this because of you!

Let's go home.

Just come home even though you haven't fully recovered.

My daughter and I are perfectly fine now.

But please admit this new patient to your care.

All right.

Then the front.

Come. Your turn.

Hold on.

There's nothing.

It's got to be somewhere.

Where did you hide it, Baimon? Tell me now.

You fooled him into giving it to you

the night you slept with him, didn't you?

We still haven't searched her bedroom yet.

Siam, take them along and search it.

They're only material possessions.

We were born into this world with nothing.

And we'll leave without anything.

What we'll be bringing along are the sins

or the good deeds we've committed.

I've racked up 350 million worth of debt.

Will we ever be able to pay it off?

We'll let them take anything we have.

Anything we've earned, we'll pay them back with it.

And where are we going to live?

We'll live as the people we're about to become

and accept what's happened. And we'll pull through.

My people are going through much worse than we are.

Yet they survive, so why won't we?

And what about your reputation?

Reputation is a social construct.

In reality, I'm just Patiharn.

A human being.

Look for it, Siam.

Raid the place!

Yes, ma'am.

Throw whatever you've checked out the room.

Oh, of course.

Just let her.

- Siam. - Yes?

What's in there? Show it to me.

Yes, ma'am.

That's my box of textbooks.

Don't touch her textbooks.

How can a stupid girl like you own books?

At most, they're probably tabloids.

- Burn them all, Siam. - Yes, ma'am.

Check if there's anything important inside before burning them.

Yes, ma'am.

Move!

Why are you getting in my way?

You're not allowed to go outside

until I've finished searching this room.

The house that's probably not ours anymore.

I'm...

unforgivably sinful.

I racked up 350 million in debt at an illegal casino.

These aren't tabloids.

She can't even read.

There's no ring either.

It's my employer's girlfriend's order. I have to follow it.

What are you burning, Siam?

What is that jar?

What is this jar?

Open it if you want to find out.

- Ew! - Ew! Yuck!

It's fermented fish!

Put your hand in there.

You might find what you want.

Don't you challenge me!

Throw it at her, Mom.

Mahassachan?

Let's go.

But Mom...

What is Siam burning, Baimon?

It's...

Our books.

We fold the pages into paper bags.

Why is she burning them?

I ordered her to.

We suspect Baimon might've stolen my engagement ring.

And did you have to go that far?

It's probably because she's so sure she'll be owning this place.

I'd like to go and tidy up.

All our things that you've raided.

What?

It's nothing. We just searched for the ring but couldn't find it.

I have to excuse myself.

I feel that something big is about to befallen this family.

Come, Rudee.

Mom, but I...

I said come.

(Next Episode)

Did you use your hands or feet to do it?

I'm not going! I won't do it! I won't move!

It's because of you and only you! You ruined our family!

Selecting a husband is not the same as choosing what to wear!

You can't just do it at random!

Look at the disaster he's brought upon us.

You are trespassing.

- Hiran? - Hiran?

This is my wife's house.

- Wife? - Wife?

- Ruayruen! - Ruayruen?
